Falling in love with timber again


Joe Trueman, shareholder at Glyngary Joinery, talks about a return to quality and craftsmanship, and why it’s setting hearts racing.
In a world dominated by mass production and disposable goods, it’s time we rekindle our appreciation for the lasting appeal of timber, especially in the form of expertly crafted windows and doors.
At Glyngary Joinery, we’ve spent years perfecting our craft, creating timber products that stand the test of time. Timber, with its unique grain and natural beauty, has an inherent charm that sets it apart. Unlike synthetic materials, it brings warmth and authenticity to any space, making it an ideal choice for windows and doors – elements that literally frame the view we love.
The beauty of timber
Timber isn’t just a material – it’s an investment in love and quality. Each piece is unique, with its own story, and that story continues as it becomes part of a home. When we craft timber windows and doors, we’re not just building something functional, we’re creating pieces that enhance a space with enduring beauty and lasting appeal.
Whether we’re working on a new build or restoring a period property, our goal is to create timber products that combine craftsmanship with timeless design. Every window and door we make is designed to perform well and to bring natural beauty into a home – a true reflection of our love for the craft.
Why choose quality timber?
Timber windows and doors are about more than just looks. High-quality timber is durable, sustainable, and naturally insulating, helping to reduce energy costs while keeping a home comfortable. When treated with care, timber offers a long-term solution that’s both functional and beautiful – qualities that only improve with age.
At Glyngary Joinery, we source only the finest materials and take great care with every step of the process, ensuring our products are built to last. The result is timber that provides warmth, character, and lasting value, making it easy to fall in love with a product that stands the test of time.
Craftsmanship that lasts
The value of timber lies in its ability to improve with age. Unlike mass-produced materials, high-quality timber products, such as windows and doors, develop a unique charm over time, adding depth and character to any space. This is the true essence of craftsmanship – creating something that doesn’t just serve a function but stands as a lasting testament to quality.
At Glyngary, we’re committed to producing timber windows and doors that endure. Whether custom-designed or bespoke, our work is driven by a love for quality and an understanding that these pieces are an investment in the future.
Sustainability at the heart
Timber is not only beautiful and durable but also an eco-friendly choice. It’s a renewable resource that, when sourced responsibly, has a much lower environmental impact than many synthetic alternatives. At Glyngary Joinery, we ensure all of our timber is sustainably sourced, so our work not only adds beauty to your space but also helps preserve the world we love.
A return to craft
The growing interest in timber products reflects a shift toward sustainability and craftsmanship – a return to valuing quality that lasts. People are rediscovering the benefits of well-made, lasting products. Timber windows and doors, as part of this movement, are not just practical but a reflection of a love for timeless design.
Consider investing in something that will truly stand the test of time. At Glyngary Joinery, we’re proud to continue creating timber windows and doors that offer beauty, durability, and craftsmanship with sustainability at their heart.
